Maitreya the World Teacher

He has been expected for generations by all of the world’s major religions. Christians know him as the Christ, and expect his imminent return. Jews await him as the Messiah; Hindus look for the coming of Krishna; Buddhists expect him as Maitreya Buddha; and Muslims anticipate the appearance of the Imam Mahdi or Messiah. Although the names are different, many believe that they all refer to the same individual: the World Teacher, whose personal name is Maitreya.

Preferring to be known simply as the Teacher, Maitreya has not come as a religious leader, or to found a new religion, but as an educator in the broadest sense, a teacher and guide for all people irrespective of background or belief.

At this time of great political, economic and social crisis, Maitreya will inspire humanity to see itself as one family and create a civilization based on sharing, economic and social justice, and global cooperation.

He will launch a call to action to save the millions of people who starve to death every year in a world of plenty. Among Maitreya’s recommendations will be a shift in social priorities so that adequate food, housing, health care and education become universal rights, automatically available to every living person worldwide. The restoring of our planet to health is also one of his major concerns. He comes, too, to advise humanity how to establish peace and trust among nations through the just and equitable redistribution of the world’s resources and technology. Sharing is the key. Under Maitreya’s inspiration, humanity itself will make the required changes and create a saner and more just world for all.

Maitreya’s priorities
Sufficient food and clean water; adequate housing for all; health care and education as universal rights; the restoration of the environment.
Maitreya’s emergence

Maitreya’s teachings

Maitreya and other well-known figures
What is the relationship between Maitreya and other well-known teachers such as Sai Baba, the Buddha, Krishna and Krishnamurti?
Maitreya’s Messages
Maitreya suggests the lines that social change must take, and evokes the desire to share and serve humanity. He also gives hints on how to recognize him and urges people to make known the fact of his presence.
Frequently asked questions about Maitreya
What does he look like? How will we recognize him? How will he work? How will the various world religious groups respond to him? Does his return signal the end of the world?
